Saddleback had won two straight road games and Christopher Trotter did his part to make it three on Tuesday. The Saddleback Roadrunners came out on top against the Gabrielino Eagles by a score of 68-61 thanks to Trotter, who went 13-for-31 on his way to 44 points and seven boards. His evening made it 15 games in a row in which he has scored at least 16 points.

Karstein George was another key player, putting up six points and ten rebounds. What's more, he posted two assists, the most he's had since back in December of 2023.

Saddleback has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-13 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.9 points over those games. Gabrielino's defeat dropped their record down to 15-12.

Coming up, Saddleback will face off against Arroyo at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Arroyo will roll in looking for their fourth straight victory, something Saddleback surely won't give up without a fight. Gabrielino does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
